Friends,
As many of you know, I had a Sudden Coronary Artery Dissection (SCAD) episode last spring. With endless thanks and gratitiude to the amazing ER staff at St. Margaret's, Dr. Agnes Kozco, the UPMC Cardiology team, and most especially my true hero Dr. Conrad Smith, I am healthy and feeling well. Since then, I have spent a lot of time researching and reading about all kinds of heart disease and they are unfortunately more common than you think, especially in young and middle aged women. As I reflect on how I can best use my experience moving forward, I am hoping to raise money and spread awareness about heart disease and SCAD. To this end, I am walking in the American Heart Association's "Heart Walk" in September. We're all tied to heart disease and stroke in some way. We have to change that. Will you help me?
Your donation will fund groundbreaking research that literally keeps hearts beating and helps people have longer, healthier lives.
This year, as we celebrate the Centennial of the American Heart Assocation, we will move healtha dn well-being foward in important and critical ways. This relentless pursuit will continue until heart disease and stroke no longer exist.
Have a heart and help me reach my goal today.
XO Sara
